Milestone Expands Its Capabilities in Growing Seattle-Tacoma Market

ST. CHARLES, MO (September 12, 2018) – Responding to growing transportation needs in the Pacific Northwest, Milestone announces its expansion in the Seattle-Tacoma region, effective immediately. In an effort to continuously expand its service offerings to both local and national clients, Milestone is opening the Seattle depot as a key strategic location to service trailer and chassis needs.

“We are excited about this expansion and look forward to delivering creative solutions and outstanding service to our customers throughout the region, while offering more comprehensive services to national accounts with West Coast fulfillment needs,” says Chuck Cannata, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Highway Division at Milestone.

The region’s economic boom and its proximity to the Port of Seattle means a tremendous need in industries including construction, manufacturing and agriculture, among others.

“Seattle is undergoing explosive growth and we want to be a part of that – the opportunities to serve this market are exciting,” says Sarah Johnson, Executive Vice President, Mobile Storage and Warehousing at Milestone. “Our Pacific Northwest customers will have access to Milestone’s nationwide network and a robust mix of 85,000+ pieces of equipment, with our focus on over-the-road needs, as well as mobile storage and chassis.”

What We Do: Trailer Leasing Services with a Personal Touch

Milestone provides personalized service in trailer leasing and rentals to our customers – every day, all year long. We are committed to supporting our clients in the form of open-architected arrangements, flexible options and added-value services.

We have a complete range of equipment to fit any application including factory direct new 2017s, mid-range model years for economical over-the-road use, and well-maintained older units for cartage and storage use. In addition, we have a large quantity of 53’ air ride trailers that are 2012s-2013s available for rental and lease at competitive rates.

Our Trailer Leasing services include:

RENTAL

For short-term needs, seasonal/peak demands, rental may best suit your needs. With no minimum term, this selection will allow you to utilize the equipment in new lanes or pools as you determine the long-term need. In addition, our rentals are billed on 12 calendar months, not 4-week cycles, which results in 13 bills over the course of a year from some leasing companies. We provide competitive priced equipment for storage, cartage and over-the-road needs.

LEASING

Entering into a lease is the most cost-effective way to supply steady business pools and lanes. This allows for competitive monthly rate, not subject to rate increases during the lease term, and ensures you have the right asset when you need it. As a lease customer, you also gain priority status if and when you need to rent trailers on a temporary basis.

BUYING/SELLING

Looking to buy trailers? Give us a call for current inventory. Looking to sell trailers? Give us a call with your current inventory. As an example of our capabilities, we may be able to arrange a purchase of your fleet, then lease it back to you until you either purchase or lease replacement trailers, or arrive at the end of their utility in your operation. We have both the resources and the creativity to consider solving any problem you may have with respect to trailers.

TRACKING SERVICES

Milestone partners with a variety of satellite tracking (GPS) services to provide the platform that best suits your needs, meaning you do not have to accept whatever system we happen to be offering. Tracking is available on both rental and lease equipment. We take care to ensure the customers can access the internet portal to provide accessibility to tracking. There is no additional fee for tracking, it is included in your monthly rental or lease rate.
